US Visit - Day Six

New York, New York! Last visit was 12 years ago.
1.6 million people in a super small island.
City feels dirty, loud and full of life.
Visited World Trade Centre site, such a vast empty space in the middle of all these buildings.
Finally saw Claire (my sister) after 1.5 years. Baby nieces aren't so baby anymore, both of them can talk. Still cuties.
Met up with Christine and Kathleen, two cousins from Canada.
Hot dogs weren't as good as I remember them to be.
Wonderful exhibitions at Museum of Modern Art AND they let you take photos of the pictures!
Dinner with Katrina. Of course we go to drinks with some of her friends.
Meat Packing district very cool. Cobbled streets add a old-school feel to the place.
Immediately I have found a version of Privilege in New York (complete with very random dancing poles).
Have taken a liking to Grey Goose vodka shots.
Get home at 3:00 am.

Amount of work done: checked 4 emails only.

Only one cheap call:

1) Why would you want to take a photo of a painting?

2) Mary-ann knows what happened to me when I got introduced to Grey Goose shots. Highlights of the evening were not remembering giving my phone to a Japanese girl to get her to put in her number, getting kicked out of the club about three times, and MA somehow managing to get me to the station so that I could go to work (6:30am start) - I would have been on time except that I got lost between the station and work.
